The study aimed to evaluate the tensile strength of additively manufactured (AMed) IN 625 using sub-sized test pieces and compare them to standard specimens. Cylindrical round coupons of varying diameters were manufactured along the -axis using the laser powder bed fusion technique and subjected to heat treatment. The simulation of the alloy solidification predicted the formation of several intermetallics and carbides under equilibrium conditions (slow cooling), apart from the γ phase (FCC). Sub-sized tensile specimens with different gauge diameters were machined from the coupons and tensile tested at ambient temperature. The results showed that sub-sized specimens exhibited lower tensile and yield strengths compared to standard specimens, but still higher than the minimum requirements of the relevant ASTM standard for AMed IN 625. The lower strength was attributed to the "size effect" of the test specimens. Fracture surfaces of the sub-sized test specimens exhibit a mixed character, combining cleavage and microvoid coalescence, with improved ductility compared to standard test pieces. The study highlights the importance of adapting characterization methods to the particularities of manufactured parts, including reduced thicknesses that make sampling standard-size specimens impractical. It concludes that sub-sized specimens are valuable for quality control and verifying compliance with requirements of AMed IN 625 tensile properties.

Direct genome sequencing of respiratory viruses from low viral load clinical specimens using the target capture sequencing technology.

Center for Emergency Preparedness and Response, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo, Japan.
The use of metagenomic next-generation sequencing technology to obtain complete viral genome sequences directly from clinical samples with low viral load remains challenging-especially in the case of respiratory viruses-due to the low copy number of viral versus host genomes. To overcome this limitation, target capture sequencing for the enrichment of specific genomes has been developed and applied for direct genome sequencing of viruses. However, as the efficiency of enrichment varies depending on the probes, the type of clinical sample, etc.

Article Synopsis
- Major bleeding events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) using oral anticoagulants (OACs) were linked to worse long-term clinical outcomes, particularly major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE).
- Analysis of two large prospective registries found that 4.5% of AF patients experienced major bleeding, which significantly increased their risk of MACCE compared to those without bleeding.
- Key factors predicting major bleeding included older age and the use of vitamin K antagonists and antiplatelet drugs; thus, minimizing bleeding risk could enhance clinical outcomes for these patients.
Risk factors predicting pathological degradation after cervical excision in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade II P16-positive patients over 25 years old: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a collective term for pre-cancerous lesions associated with cervical invasive carcinoma. Treatment options depend on the development and progression of the disease. Especially for patients with CINII grade who are aged 25 years and older and have fertility requirements, it is a clinical challenge to determine whether to proceed with conservative or excisional treatment.
